VISITING THE GALLERY

Do I need an appointment to visit?

No appointment needed. We welcome walk-ins during our regular opening hours and love meeting visitors who discover us for the first time.

What are your opening hours?

We are open Monday to Sunday, 10am to 4pm And we extend our hours for exhibition openings. Check our exhibitions page for upcoming events and extended hours.

Dean Street Fine Art Gallery is located at 403 W Grand Central Ave, Tampa, FL 33606, next to the iconic Oxford Exchange in downtown Tampa. Street parking is available along nearby avenues, and several parking garages are within a short walk. Give us a call before your visit and we will be happy to point you in the right direction.

What can I expect when I visit?

A warm, no-pressure environment where the art does the talking. Our team is here to answer questions, share the stories behind the works, and help you find what connects — whether that is your first purchase or your next addition to an established collection. There is no obligation to buy and no pretense. Just great art and an open door.

Do you host events and private viewings?

Yes. Dean Street hosts quarterly exhibitions, VIP openings, and private viewings throughout the year. Events are a central part of how we build our community and bring collectors and design professionals together. Follow us on Instagram and join our mailing list to stay informed.


HOW TO BUY ART FROM A GALLERY

How do I buy art from a gallery for the first time?

Start by visiting us, whether online or in the gallery. There is no better way to understand what connects with you than seeing the works. Our team will guide you through the collection, answer your questions, and help you find the right piece without any pressure. 


If you cannot visit in person, browse our collection online and
reach out to Sharon, who handles all artwork inquiries received online, and will be happy to help.

What kind of artwork is available at Dean Street?

We represent contemporary artists from across the United States and internationally, with works spanning abstract, figurative, contemporary, street and urban art, works on paper, and limited editions. Our collection includes original paintings, mixed media works, sculptures, and artist-authorized limited editions.

What price ranges can I expect?

We offer works at a wide range of price points, from accessible limited editions to significant original works. Our team is happy to discuss what is available within your budget — there is no minimum and no judgment. Art collecting is a journey and we are here to support every stage of it.

Can I take a piece home the same day?

In most cases, yes. Our team will help facilitate a smooth and secure transaction and make sure your artwork is prepared and packaged with care. Some works may require additional preparation or framing, in which case we will give you a clear timeline.

Do you offer limited editions for new collectors?

Yes. Our limited edition works are artist-authorized pieces that offer an accessible and considered entry point into collecting. They are selected with the same care as our original works and are a smart way to start or add to a collection without compromising on quality.

How do I know which piece is right for me?

Trust what stops you. The best art purchases are driven by genuine personal connection rather than trend or investment logic. Our team is here to help you understand what you are drawn to and why, but ultimately the right piece is the one that you cannot stop thinking about.

Can I see a work in my space before I buy?

Yes. Our Mobile Art Concierge service brings a specific work or a curated selection of works directly to your home or project site so you can see the art in its real context before making a decision. Get in touch to arrange a van visit.


ART SERVICES AND CONSULTATION

What is art consultation and how does it work?

Art consultation at Dean Street is a personalized service designed to help you find the right art for your home, office, or project. We take the time to understand your space, your taste, and your story before making any recommendations. From there we handle sourcing, curation, framing, and installation — as much or as little as you need.

How much does an art consultation cost?

Art consultations at Dean Street are complimentary. If you are working with Susan on moving or rearranging existing artwork in your space, a fee applies, though this is sometimes applied toward a purchase. Get in touch to discuss your needs and we will explain how we can help.

What is The Art Edit?

The Art Edit is Susan Baisden's signature in-home service, designed for homeowners who want expert guidance on placement, composition, and what belongs in their space. Susan works directly in your home, rethinking what is there and introducing what is new, until the space feels completely and unmistakably yours. Get in touch with Susan to find out more.

Do you offer framing and installation?

Yes. Dean Street offers professional framing and white-glove installation for all works purchased through the gallery. Our goal is to make sure every piece is presented beautifully and securely from the moment it leaves us to the moment it is on your wall.

What is the Mobile Art Concierge?

The Mobile Art Concierge is our private in-home viewing service. We bring a curated selection of works directly to your home or project site so you can see the art in its real context. It is a relaxed, unhurried experience that makes finding the right work as easy as opening your front door.

Do you work with interior designers and commercial clients?

Yes. Dean Street has a dedicated trade program for interior designers, architects, and commercial clients, offering trade pricing, private sourcing, custom commissions, van visits, and a team that understands project timelines and budgets. Get in touch with Susan Baisden to discuss your next project.


CUSTOM COMMISSIONS

What is a custom art commission?

A custom art commission is a work created specifically for you, your space, and your story. Rather than choosing from what is available in the collection, you work with an artist from our roster to create something entirely original — from concept to completion.

How does the commission process work at Dean Street?

It starts with a conversation. We take the time to understand your brief: the space, the feeling you are looking for, the scale, the medium, and any specific requirements. We then match you with the right artist, facilitate the creative direction and collaboration, and manage the process through to installation.

Can I work directly with an artist?

Yes. Direct collaboration between client and artist is something we actively encourage and facilitate. Some of our most meaningful projects have come from that direct creative conversation.

How long does a commission take?

Timelines vary depending on the artist and whether they are based locally or further afield. We will align with the artist on requirements and timelines from the start and make sure everyone is clear on expectations before work begins. Get in touch to discuss your project and we will give you a realistic timeframe.

What styles and mediums are available for commissions?

Our roster spans abstract, figurative, contemporary, street and urban art, and works in a wide range of mediums including acrylic, oil, mixed media, and sculpture. Get in touch and we will match you with the right artist for your brief.


PRACTICAL QUESTIONS

Do you accept consignment?

No. Dean Street works directly with and represents artists rather than taking works on consignment. Every artist and every work in our collection has been selected through our curatorial process.

Do you work with estates?

Yes. If you are managing an inherited art collection or transitioning significant holdings, we are happy to help. Get in touch and we will have a conversation about how we can support you.

Do you ship artwork?

Yes, we ship worldwide. Our team will ensure every work is packaged and handled with the utmost care. Get in touch for shipping details related to a specific work.

Can I submit my work to the gallery?

Yes. Dean Street is open to artist submissions from established and emerging artists. Visit our artist submission page to find out more and fill out the form.
